Using Norco's holistic approach to fit and geometry, the Torrent A1's unique combination of our next generation of Gravity Tune, longer reach, slacker head tube angle¯and steep seat tube angle provides a more forward weight distribution within a longer wheelbase. This allows more powerful pedaling, increased climbing traction and added grip and control when¯descending.

To go along with the basic theme of the welded aluminum frame, we spec'd the Torrent S2 with a Shimano Deore 12-speed drivetrain. We also gave it some real big bike credibility with a 150mm RockShox 35 Gold RL fork, a burly Deore crankset, and strong Shimano M420 4-piston brakes.
